Yes but if he came back , I wouldn't be too happy but anyone's better than Allegri, he should know what's he getting into.
I wouldn't tollerate what's he doing at Tottenham meaning crying cause they didn't buy him enough players or who he wanted.
If he is open to work with what we can provide him with fine. But if I have to watch him crying every 2-3days cause our players are shit compared to Inter or Napoli... no thanks!
Anywhere he goes he's bitching about transfers and club effort. Never takes the blame. The same shit would happen here (again).

Stay away from this fraud as far as possible. Sick and tired of heated soups. JJ is so stuck in the past, ffs.

If he'd sign a one-year contract with an obligation to leave afterwards, or he and the club would have to pay me, me specifically, 1m euro each, then I'd take him on.
I am sure he can fire us up during that year. But I can't stand his antics and I find his vision boring.

Conte:

‘I don’t read this and I don’t hear this, but the people who know me would not tell you that I am bad coach,’

‘None of the clubs where I have worked have been unhappy about my commitment and what I have given them.

Usually when I leave, the club regret it a lot because they saw the way I worked and the commitment I put in. In this aspect I am really happy for the way that I am.’

‘I give everything for the club. Not only for Tottenham — for Inter, for Juventus, for every club where I was the coach. It is normal that when I finish the day I am tired because I work a lot for the club. And for this reason they want me to stay for a long period.’

It has been a difficult few months for the Italian, with the deaths of fitness coach Gian Piero Ventrone in October, Sinisa Mihajlovic in December and Gianluca Vialli this month. All three were dear friends, none was older than 61.

Conte, 53, opened up on how it has affected him. ‘This is a difficult season from a personal aspect,’ he said. ‘When this situation happens it brings you to have important reflections.

‘Many times we give a lot of importance to our work and we forget family, we forget that we need to have more time for us. For sure, this season is making me have an important reflection on my future.

‘When work is at the top of your mind maybe we forget to stay with family and friends, we forget to spend time with friends. This is our passion and for that we lose a lot of things.

‘When this happens you start to think that maybe it is also good to give more time to your family and friends and also to yourself. Work is not everything in life.’

The fact that Conte’s family remain in Italy only makes life harder.

‘I don’t want to affect the life of my family,’ he said. ‘Sometimes it is important to make decisions to sacrifice and stay.'

‘But I have a family who try to support me and come here at every moment that they can. But the situation becomes more difficult when things happen, like with Gianluca, Gian Piero and Sinisa.’

This is the thread of release, for those whose only purpose the last few years has been, the releases of mister. I would say, keep thread open forever and without moderation, its charity.

Antonio #Conte reflecting on his future: the desire of the italian coach is the return to Serie A. So he could leave #Tottenham at the end of the season. #transfers #THFC

Wait...what?? This guy chose a job at Tottenham over spending time with his family? I'm not a parent so not usually in the business of criticising people who are...but that really is terrible

Well.. the reason could be for the family as well.
I am sure he does not need those 20 mil he got from Totts.
But who knows?!!

I want him back but don't want that 3-5-2 business around here.

I want Zidane first and foremost.


But if we can't get him (and FIGC and Uefa fucking us makes that less likely), I will begrudgingly be fine with Conte.

Mainly because we are likely to play without Europe play next season, even start next season with points deduction, and Conte best asset is rallying a collective together like feverish soldier playing aggressive football.

and most importantly Foster an us vs them mindset into them. And there is no bigger fuel for a an us vs them mantra then whats happening to us.

Plus can get less out of more with role players if we lose some high profile players and can't replace them properly.


He will only work for 1-2 seasons due his self destructive nature, but that might be what we need to bounce back from a huge setback. Might even challenge for scudetto against odds.


But biggest draw back for him to Juve is he is more about experienced players and not youth, and we are dripping with young players currently.

Before the 15 point deduction fiasco I was reluctant about this guy but now given where we'll be in the years to come he doesnt seem like such a bad idea for the rebuild.
